Replying to LO2559 --

Diane, thanks for your thoughtful reply to my posting.

I was not as clear as I should have been, perhaps. What I mean, I think,
is that although our systems advance with ever increasing speed, we leave
behind the same speed of growth in our human potential for posisitve
interactions. Page 1 of most newspapers says as much.

Potential for positive human interaction exists within process improvement
work in business or anywhere else. By means of such interaction we may
stumble upon some means of advancing the greater use of our capacious
minds, only a small percentage of which we regularly harness.

So, while we increase production of real or imagined toys in our world,
are we increasing human potential, too? I use that expression in a broad
sense. You know what I'm driving at, I think.

I hope I have explained myself better to you, Diane.

Rumi has a wonderful quatrain:

Out of nowhere a horse
brought us were where we taste love
until we don't exist again. This taste
is the wine we always mention.

Best regards
